Roasted Masala Makhana Recipe / Spicy Roasted Makhana Recipe / Spicy Phool Makhana Snack Recipe

Phool Makhana, one of the best choice for low calorie, diet & diabetic friendly and filling snack. At home everyone love Makhana and I often make it for our snack. Desi style Masala Makhana is easy to make with simple Ingredients. We love Coconut Oil for making masala makhana

but you can also add butter or ghee. My neighbor Aunt makes Roasted Makhana with ghee and it smells and tastes great too. 

The Makhana we get here will not be not crunchy and crisp, we have roast nicely to get crisp and crunchy. I prefer to add roast makhana first and then add the roasted makhana to the masala Mix, so that it will not get burnt and tastes fresh and good. Adjust spices to your taste & preference. Just chaat Masala & turmeric powder alone will also tastes good.
